NSU Executive Vice President & COO Recipient of Glass Ceiling Award

Jacqueline A. Travisano, M.B.A., CPA, Nova Southeastern University’s (NSU) executive vice president and chief operating officer, has been named a 2014 recipient of the Glass Ceiling Award presented by the Florida Diversity Council.

Travisano is one of 13 women who were recognized during the Fourth Annual Florida Women’s Conference, held earlier this month. The National Diversity Council seeks to recognize and honor women who not only achieved personal success but have made it possible for others to more easily follow in their footsteps.

Recipients of the Glass Ceiling Award were honored for meeting certain criteria, including, but not limited to: demonstrated leadership excellence; maintained a steady increase in responsibility throughout their career; established a record of accomplishments in areas of expertise; provided a positive influence in the workplace; and demonstrated integrity and high ethical standards.

Travisano’s career encompasses more than two decades of service to higher education and non-profit organizations in various capacities. Immediately prior to joining NSU, Travisano served as vice president for business affairs and chief financial officer at St. John’s University in Queens, New York.

She holds an M.B.A from Chatham University, a B.S. in Business Administration from Robert Morris University, and is a Certified Public Accountant.
